November 9, 2024: Grave Marking Ceremony for Patriot Gabriel Smith: The grave marking for Patriot Gabriel Smith will be on Saturday, November 9, 2024 beginning at 1:00 P.M. at Poplar Springs Primitive Baptist Church, 6465 Smithfield Road, Bowdon, Georgia. The Patriot marker will be placed in the church cemetery near his son rather than the cemetery of burial because of the difficulty in getting the expected crowd at the isolated cemetery. This event is sponsored by the Pulaski Chapter with the Georgia Color Guard participating. Members who have never attended a Patriot Grave Marking, this is a do not miss opportunity. A donation will be made by the Pulaski Chapter to the church for the use of the church facility. We are expecting the State President of GSSAR to attend as well as the State Secretary. We currently have 10 wreath presentations.
November 9, 2024: Veterans Day Program: On the morning of Saturday, November 9th, there will be a Veterans' Day program at the Carroll County Veterans' Memorial. If you wish to attend the Veterans' Day program, there should be ample time to get to the Gabriel Smith grave marking ceremony that afternoon.
